Kostrov Waived

The Wizards are still working to sign forward Jamar Beasley to a contract, and while the deal isn't done, it's sounding likely it's only a matter of time. With Beasley's signing, that means that the Wizards will have to create a roster space. It appears that the Wizards have made that move. According to MLSsoccer.com the Wizards have waived Igor Kostrov. Kostrov had been brought in in the preseason along with countryman Alexi Casian. Kostrov had gotten himself offered a contract while Casian had not. Kostrov didn't make any appearances for the Wizards, nor did he make the bench. He appeared in a few of the Wizards scrimmages, scoring a few goals including ones against Baker and Tulsa.
